My friend is about to attend a reunion next month and the word reunion got me to thinking about consciousness and our immortality. I believe we can hold reunions even after we leave our bodies. We can do it without bodies by having our consciousness be aware of the existence of other consciousness or through our consciousness coming back in a different body. My wife and I have experienced a past life which brought us into contact with each other. Before you diagnose me and stop reading, let me mention two books that may interest you in the area I am about to discuss. They are The Field by Lynne McTaggart and The Psychobiology of Gene Expression by Ernest Rossi.
Where I am going with all this is about consciousness and the fact that something continues to exist after the body dies. Your body may cease to exist but your consciousness could fall up and reunite with the collective consciousness. In Heaven when you finish a report you are told not to say, the end, but to say, the beginning. God explained, “Life is a series of beginnings and we must begin to use the information in the report and the changes and losses in our lives and keep beginning. We do not call a graduation a termination. We call it a commencement and The Bible doesn’t end in a conclusion but a revelation.”
So can we, without bodies, continue to have reunions? I know on one level the only thing of permanence is love and many authors share that love is the bridge between the land of the living and the land of the dead and that the best part of a good person stays forever, for love is immortal and makes all things immortal.
My sense is past consciousness does continue to exist and does affect us in our present lives. I believe it affects the decisions we make in relationships and professions though we may not be consciously aware of it. The collective unconscious contains much conscious material. We store memories in our organs, as well, and if some are from the past it may be why we develop certain afflictions and react to touch with various feelings and memories without consciously understanding why.
As Rossi states, “Consciousness dictates what the mind mediates.” In other words our minds do not come up with the thoughts our consciousness does.
Our reaction to a snake, which we fear, by monitoring brain activity can be shown to occur before we are consciously aware of the snake. That split second might save our life by getting us to move back or stop walking towards the snake.
That is why I suggest we become no bodies and enjoy the awareness of the collective consciousness which can educate us and make our lives more meaningful. I suggest that you live a life of beginnings and when it ends start attending reunions. If you understand why, imitate how and know when, it will all come to pass.
I hope I have not left you confused and wondering. You can only experience what you are willing to accept. Explaining and understanding are not always ours to obtain. Astronomers, quantum physicists and mystics can explain how to exist with uncertainty and awe. I had many doubts until I experienced things. Then my beliefs were not the issue but my experience was. So remain open minded and enjoy life and the wonder of creation.
